This games need to put a faster timer on this game. Also, I was on phase 10 and the game froze me and I could not play.I am playing this game as I type there is a player that is intentionally slow playing I want to be able to make her play faster and I also want to be able to block her from playing in the same table as I am. Her name is Roxi Please fix the players time slow players are ruining this game. I was playing tonight and the game just froze. By the way, why can’t you do something about players playing so slow. Please put a timer on them slow players are ruining this game, some do it on purpose .

Good game but could use some upgraded features
1. Gameplay WILL BE SLOW if another player consistently uses the time on the play clock before taking their turn. Other than leaving the game, there is NOTHING you can do about it. You can not even “vote them out”.
2. THE COINS ARE USELESS. You cannot purchase anything like in-game upgrades or new features with them.
3. If you do want to be a “high roller”, the only way to increase the number of coins to “bet/play” is to hold down an arrow button and watch it count by tens. THERE ARE NO PRESET AMOUNTS (10, 100, 250, 500, 1000…). For example, If you want to play 100k coins, you have to keep your finger on the arrow for approximately 2:00 MINUTES! Once you have your 100k coin bet and click to start a game, IF ANOTHER PLAYER QUITS, you are AUTOMATICALLY RETURNED TO THE START SCREEN, YOUR BET IS ERASED and you have to sit there ANOTHER 2 MINUTES to place your bet again! I have had this scenario REPEATED TWICE before actually getting to the game play. So, THERE WENT 6+ MINUTES OF MY TIME!!
4. The pre-selected chat responses could REALLY use some reworking. When trying to get another player to speed things up, “play fast” just does not cut it.

Pretty fun but AIs have poor strategy
This game is pretty fun to play - but, when playing against AI, or a game with both real players and AIs, they AI play strategy is lazy at best. For example, why does it give the exact card needed by the next player when that player has achieved the level when it should NOT be helping the next player go out. Or why does it “skip” the players that have completed the level after it has also completed it? Shouldn’t it skip the players who HAVEN’T completed the level so they don’t also advance? It makes zero sense. When played with only real players, these things don’t happen because people are smart and strategic but it is SO frustrating to watch these dumb moves happen by the AI - so much so that I have to quit playing the game.

Glitchy
I gave 4 stars just because phase 10 is a fun game. My family has played the card game forever - I highly recommend it irl. The app is pretty glitchy. Don’t be surprised if it freezes - then makes you watch an ad when you quit the game that you couldn’t play. What happens more often is that the bots discard what the next player needs, often to go out. The most frustrating thing is when you’re moving cards to meld, you have to be very precise or the card won’t stay where you’re trying to put it. So you have to go very slow and even then there’s no guarantee it’ll stick. It might even snap back down onto the discard pile. Playing ‘online’ with real players is slow partly because of this. It’s a long-ish game so also feels slower because the social fun of playing this game around the table is missing.

Ah! So Much Better!
I’ve never played phase 10, or at least not much. It did seem I.day familiar when I played the other one that’s on the App Store. With THAT one, I couldn’t really get any better at it because 30 second adds after every single phase was annoying and running out of energy before finishing a game might tempt some people to just spend actual money to buy some, but the gesture just pisses me off. I enjoyed playing, but had to stop for a long time for the clock to build energy and I have a life. A busy one and I use games like this during breaks to relax. It possible with the other app. This one allows me to begin a game, pause when I need to focus elsewhere and pick up right where I left off. There was a remove ads option, but it wasn’t necessary, since those ads weren’t intrusive in the least and never interrupted gameplay at all. I appreciated that so much that I bought the no ads option, just to say “thanks” for making such a beautifully simple app.
Sometimes, it feels like the AI is stacked against me, but at least it’s somewhat fair, in that it also seems stacked against others as well. This is kind of funny, since I’m playing against computers, but obvious when the one card I need keeps being discarded by the player 2 hands before me over and over, or I keep drawing the LAST card I need at each hand. It whatever. I guess card games can seem that way at times. Still a great app, with simple features, and unobtrusive ads 😊
